How do ya Call yer ole Best Buddy? – Lyrics


3rd Grade (Appalachian/Smokey Mountains Bluegrass theme)

Soloist: How do ya call yer ole best buddy?
How do ya call yer ole best pal?
Are ya aware that it ain’t funny,
to leave ‘em alone when times get bad.
Soloist: When they’re a-hurtin’ do ya kick ‘em?
All: No!
Soloist: When they’re a-frightened do ya leave ‘em there?
All: No!
Soloist: When they’re a cry-in do ya tease ‘em?
All: No!
Soloist: What about when a wolf is there?
All: (pause)
(Instrumental interlude)
All: How do ya call yer ole best buddy?
How do ya call yer ole best pal?
Are ya aware that it ain’t funny,
to leave ‘em alone when times get bad.
